"I see...I see..."
The carriage was not moving very fast, and at noon it was still moving slowly on the road between the wilderness.
After many carriages and horses, the road became a road. Both sides of the road were still overgrown mountain forests. The weather was hot and the cicadas on the trees kept singing.
But several people on the carriage all felt a chill on their scalps.
"Brother Xu... what you are talking about... are not lying to us, are you? If it is really so... evil, this matter must have spread long ago. Why haven't we heard of it..."
Relatively speaking, Xiao Chen, the youngest, had the biggest reaction after hearing what Xu Dabao said, and his face turned pale.
Maybe when humans face horror or other unacceptable things, the first thought is to characterize it as a fake thing.
Xiao Chen subconsciously comforted himself in this way, allowing him to be calmer, and at the same time he quickly discovered the doubts.
yes!
After he raised this question, the expressions on the faces of several other people also looked like they suddenly understood.
Li Zhengyi has only traveled to this world for more than ten days, so it is understandable that he does not understand some things. He has even never heard of most things.
But the other people are indeed the natives of this world. If the other three people have not heard of it, it seems that what Xu Dabao said is a little suspicious.
However, Li Zhengyi was not in a hurry to express his opinion. He still wanted to wait and see how Xu Dabao explained.
"You guy, do you have nothing to say now? You just made up a story just to deceive us. Do you think everyone is as stupid as you?"
After Xiao Chen found the flaw, Zhang Daniu fired directly at Xu Dabao as if he had caught the enemy's foot.
Liu Sangou didn't speak. Maybe it was because he was more stable due to his age. Maybe he had experienced a lot and had seen some weird things, so he didn't immediately object. Like Li Zhengyi, he turned to look at Xu Dabao .
Some people will become less and less confident the more they are questioned, while some people, on the contrary, have the quality of becoming more courageous the more they make mistakes, which makes them refute louder when faced with doubts.
What's more, in Xu Dabao's view, even the captain Li Zhengyi didn't doubt him. He, Zhang Daniu, was nothing.
As for Xiao Chen, he is just a little kid and he doesn’t understand anything.
So he replied directly: "You know nothing. If it's an ordinary thing, do you still need me to talk about it?"
"That's what's weird about this matter. It's obviously a shocking and big case, but not much news has been spread."
"Every time it happens, people around me will talk about it. Later, it will be like facing the god of plague, and they will not dare to continue talking."
"It's because no one dares to speak out, so fewer and fewer people know about this incident, and it's almost as if it never happened."
…
The atmosphere in the carriage became solemn again, everyone looked at each other, and no one spoke for a while.
Although he didn't know whether this was true or not, according to Li Zhengyi's observation, he felt that at least Xu Dabao didn't seem to be lying to them.
If that were the case, the case would become more difficult and even dangerous.
I just don’t know if that guy Awei knows the true situation of this matter.
If he did this intentionally, then the image of Ah Wei in Li Zhengyi's heart would become more and more complicated.
Not only is he lazy, lustful, and likes to act like a leader, there is also something sinister and sinister underneath that seemingly honest face.
Judging from his attitude over the past two days, Li Zhengyi thought that yesterday's incident was over, or that he didn't care at all.
But I didn't expect to dig such a big hole for Li Zhengyi to jump in.
How could such a weird and dangerous case be solved so easily by just a few of them, and how could they treat Li like a child in just two days at most?
Even if it is really agreed that Li Zhengyi can solve the case by finding someone to take the blame, can this kind of case be handled casually?
If you really do that, not only will it lay a warning for the future, but it will also be equivalent to handing all your control to that guy Awei with both hands.
Although these things don't matter to Li Zhengyi, because he will return to the world in less than twenty days at most.
But he had to guard against that guy Awei, and Li Zhengyi even thought that that guy would become his biggest stumbling block on the way to completing his mission.
However, these things are just Li Zhengyi's imagination. We have to wait until we go to Yangshan Town to see what the specific situation will be.
Maybe what Xu Dabao just said was just a story he heard from hearsay.
"Just blow it."
After a while, Zhang Daniu and Xu Dabao started fighting again, which dissipated the relatively serious atmosphere just now.
Li Zhengyi did not stop them or join in, but silently thought about the next thing.
He decided to focus on his own affairs no matter what in the future. If there was no relatively clear result tomorrow, he would return immediately with a few people without delaying and wasting time.
As for the treacherous and evil people hidden behind this case, Li Zhengyi must have come up with quick ideas.
Even though he was in a different world now, how could he remain indifferent after hearing such tragic things.
But then again, after all, his abilities are limited.
Not to mention whether it could be done or not, in this short period of time, he had no clue about the matter. He only heard what Xu Dabao said.
How could it be possible that he would reveal this matter as soon as he came?
Even if Li Zhengyi is indeed a time traveler with a system, he can't be so stupid as to think that he will be like what is described here.
Even if you jump off a cliff, nothing will happen. Instead, you will get an omnipotent grandfather.
After all, real life is not about writing, only what you think comes out.
Although Yangshan Town is said to be next door to Renjia Town, it took nearly two hours to reach the destination even in a carriage.
Unlike the flat and regular terrain of Renjia Town, the terrain of Yangshan Town is more complex, with many buildings even built on the slopes of hills.
The carriage that Li Zhengyi and the others were riding in quickly entered the Yangshan Township area after turning the road at the foot of two mountains.
Sitting on the carriage and looking at the surrounding environment, it is also the style of the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China.
But both in terms of street architecture and the appearance of pedestrians coming and going, they are much worse than Renjia Town.
There's a strange feeling of run-down...
